A MARVELLOUS, If NOT MIRACULOUS, CURE.
Many of our readers will remember the
injury of the daughter of Mr.. w. II, Turner
of Berlin, near Montpelier, some six years
ago. The accident caused a deformity of
the spine and total loss of sensation and
power in the lower eXtremites. Doctors
from far and near had exhausted their skill
and had abandoned the case as utterly hope
less-a child of fourteen doomed to be "A
cripple for life Fortunately her parents
became inspired with the hope that DIR.
Gage of 26 West Thirty-tirst street, New
York, the author of so many wonderful
cures in this section might reach her case.
AT one of his visits to Montpelier, few
months ago, Mrs Turner consulted him and
received encouragement The patient could
not be carried TO Montpelier, so, after care
fully considering the case, the doctor de-
| cided to prescribe without seeing her. His
directions have been faithfully followed
and, under the treatment, she has steadily
gained from the first The natural feeling
soon returned to her limbs and she can now
! walk with but little assistance, and her
parents are naturally overjoyed at the pros
! poets of a complete restoration. Why Dr.
| Gage should have such remarkable success,
even without seeing the patient, is mys-
terry, to say the least, We have no theory
to advance, but simply give the plain facts
and leave our readers to draw their own in
erences.-NoHtpelier Wdtchmdn
We published the above several months
ago, the case was then exciting so much
! interest and so many conjectures as to the
possibility of cure after the patient had
been helpless so many years. We now
have the pleasure of publishing the follow
